MaxiMenu KnowledgeBase – Menu Doesn't Appear

If you see a blank empty space or an error when attempting to view your menu in a browser, it is usually a common issue with a simple solution. We recommend that you check for each problem in order.

Common issue #1: Supporting files aren't uploaded

If you're previewing on your server, double-check that you remembered to upload the maximenu2_files/ supporting files folder (it will be located in your site's home folder). Upload the folder and the menu should appear properly. Note also that these files should be re-uploaded after making changes to a menu.

Common issue #2: Incorrect preview in browser settings

If you're using Dreamweaver's Preview in Browser feature and all you see is a gray rectangle with a broken image icon where the menu should appear, this is due to an incorrect setting in the Dreamweaver preferences. To resolve the problem, select Edit > Preferences... (Windows) or Dreamweaver > Preferences... (Mac). In the Preferences dialog that opens, select the Preview in Browser section and disable the Preview Using Temporary File option.
